Answer:

B. African Slaves

Step-by-step explanation:

The Latin American region possessed wide variety of agricultural resources. To process those resources, the European colonists (mostly Spanish colonists) decided to bring in slaves from Africa on top of the workers that already exist locally.

During their down time, the African slaves and the local Latin American citizens interacted with one another. A cultural exchange occurred between the two groups, some crhacteristics of African culture were absorbed within the Latin American culture.
